giving my ldb a daughter. embarrassing for all involved. mostly me

#her mom is an orc and her dad is a wood elf so she's going to be a very pointy orc. angular #like ok i suppose i leaned a little heavy on the elf features but also shes 12. she'll develop more orcish features. Not My Fault 😐#mimiart #weird little girl who pretends to be a wolf -> actual werewolf pipeline #elder scrolls #skyrim #shes sooo sweet and smiley :) idk where that comes from. not either of her parents. neither a point for nature nor nurture #calling her Khara for now. might change idk #re: my caption its only embarrassing because of who she had the child with. he fucking sucks #but so does she which is why they get along and they make each other worse. but also sometimes better #whatever. they love each other and their weird kids #at first they said “no kids absolutely the fuck not” then they decided to adopt alesan because like. hes already pretty much self sufficien #like he had a job and everything right. this will be a breeze hes already pretty much a fully formed human we can just help him out #by letting him sleep in our house right. and then like not even a full year later uloth gets pregnant oops 😬#does anyone here know how to keep a baby alive. thankfully uloth has amassed basically a small village of followers/friends/housecarls #some more responsible and knowledgeable than others. so dw the kids are okay and not dead #they just keep the necromancy and shady black market trading and unethical experiments OUTSIDE THE HOUSE #tes #ocs #oc #khara has only broken her dads finger once. orc grip you know how it is #oh and his nose too. but he deserved it for stealing hers 😑 like what was she gonna do?? NOT steal his right back?? come on

I was rewatching The Stone Forest and I really like to think that Hilda had to pass by the Bell Keeper’s outpost on her way out of the city limits. I like to think that idiot looked at what was happening, shrugged, and said ‘eh, she’s the scariest thing out there’

#“‘the scariest thing out there’?”the girl sends him a look that isn't quite a glare for once; it still conveys her opinion just as clearly #Edmund shrugs. Hilda is still within sight of his binoculars. he watches her run and can’t be sure whether she’s running *towards* or *from #*.He doesn’t think she knows either.#'I mean. it’s not like trolls can harm her at this time of the day.#Don’t tell me you believe in fairies kid.'#And there it is at last: the glare. Meiri looks up from her art project - her new therapist had reccomended it as a way to express herself #and since he'd been helping so much so far she'd decided to grudgingly give it a shot -#“*No*” she states pointedly; to anyone who knew her it was an affirmation. And Edmund knew her better than she cared for #'What I believe in is wolves and recluse spiders and ticks and nettle. And I believe that someone with the spine #to sabotage the Patrol wouldn't have the self control to not lick a pretty mushroom'#“Hey!” Edmund protested putting down his binoculars. “I sabotaged the Patrol! For *you* I might add!”#Meiri's smile turned mean; it was a regular expression for her yet it never conveyed any malice. Just the thrill of a game that never tired #her. “And would you?” she lifted one thick eyebrow; signaling to her dad that it was his move now #The dad in question was unfortunately thinking back to a time in his young teenage years when he figured he could eat anything animals bit #and gave himself a poisoning that had him taken to the ER. But she didn't need to know that. *ever* in fact.#“Obviously I would. Like I'd let a mushroom ruin my perfect sandwich diet”#Meiri groaned loudly. Some games were worth playing. But some wars she'd already accepted she'd never win #“Anyway” he turned back to staring at the outside of the wall as if it was of any interest to him (it wasn't)#“kid'll be fine is my point. And even if she isn't ya know what's the best think about this situation?”#They looked at each other with matching smirks. “none of our flipping business” he said at the same time as she echoed #“None of our fucking business”#He gasped immediatelly. “*Meiri!*”#The chastening was useless. She just shrugged innocently.#He'd really have to limit her library visits #the bell keeper hilda #meirdom #hilda the series #hilda netflix

So, Lesley's somewhat of a better parent than Roy. But based on what we've seen so far... She's pretty fucked.

What has Roy done to be put on the bad parent list compared to Lesley?

Roy believed in making punishments related to whatever he was being punished for a better 'learning experience'

For example: if Roy asked David to clean his room and he refused, he would lock him in until he was done, even if he had to miss meals to do it, or if David broke something important to him he would get rid of something important to David. Some were worse than others, but Roy was strict on the fact that punishments wouldn't end until they were over, or until Lesley decided it was too far and forced him to stop.

#Roy tried to be better than his own dad and in many ways succeeded! unfortunately that didn't mean he was a good father...#Roy accidentally perpetuating the cycle of abuse because that's what he grew up with and doesn't know any other way to parent :(#There was an extended version of the 'david cleaning his room' story but it felt a bit dark so I cut it #I can uncut it if anyone wants tho #two of us AU #two of us!Roy #abuse tw

i have to think about chilchuck and laios forever

#random thoughts #dungeon meshi #the fact laios is holding back so much anger and he's the one who chilchuck lets out so much of his anger on #like you've seen how many times he beats on him and degrades him and laios just takes it #they're both holding so many secrets from their party like???#chilchuck's entire personal life. laios's interest in monsters and kensuke.#the fact laios somehow hid his interest in eating monsters from the entire party before this???#laios is estranged from his parents and very close with his sister. chilchuck is estranged from his wife and very close with his daughters #chilchuck thinks laios knows him better than anyone else in the party. chilchuck canonically thinks laios is dangerous and unreasonable #which like? reductive but accurate.#laios holds the lives of those he cherishes above all else. the world could go to hell for all he cares as long as those he loves are safe #chilchuck fears intimacy and could never admit how much he values the people around him unless under severe threat #god. i have to read dungeon meshi again. i need to analyze them #one self-sacrificing dumbass and one self-preserving selfish dumbass #laios has problems putting his needs first when it comes to those he loves. i can easily see that conflicting with chilchucks selfishness #i do think after chilchucks failed marriage he would become more hypervigilant in his relationships once he allows himself to date again #like he doesn't necessarily understand what he did wrong but he knows he did something #god the irony of someone so perceptive failing to recognize his wife's needs #imagining chilchuck recognizing laios is not satisfied by something and he asks him abt it and laios is like 'no im fine dont worry abt me'#like fully sincere. laios is used to denying himself what he needs for others #ran away from home when falin was being mistreated. sacrifices his body in the end when he becomes The Big Guy #suppresses himself to try and make others like him more or at least dislike him less #do you think he'd suppress himself at first when in a relationship with chilchuck out of fear of driving him away #chilchuck's perception vs laios's poor masking fight fight fight #god they both fear each other leaving. laios because he fears being like his father and driving chilchuck away like his dad drove him away #and chilchuck because his wife left him and he didn't fully understand Why.#the fact chilchuck thinks laios should act like more of a leader. do you think he fears becoming a poor leader like his dad?#chilchuck trusts and values laios as a leader and that scaring the shit out of both of them 👌👌👌#this is why they're switches okay

thinking about social worker percy again

#ppl who seriously believe hes gonna be a marine biologist. do you even fundamentally understand percy as a character #like yeah hes the son of poseidon he can talk to sea creatures but guys. thats not enough to make someone passionate abt something #and guys. the amount of math and science that goes into that??? i love percy and hes boy stupid but he is also not doing all that #*not stupid <3 #teacher percy is like. its fine but i dont agree with it i dont think he would have the patience or want to do something like that #but social work. with the way he grew up (and we love sally we know she was with gabe to protect him) and what he saw at the hands of the #gods not bothering to give a shit abt their kids and how he still felt unwanted by his dad and how he turned down godhood and instead asked #for the gods to give a shit abt their kids and stop making them feel so unwanted bc he knows how that feels and it fucking sucks #and i know damn well percy never wants to see another kid experience what he did. and hes great with kids ;#*(estelle for example obviously but he was also good with nico who had it worse than him)#and i know in my soul that this is what he would do #and everyone else is wrong bc i know him better than anyone else #r.txt

lol. im gonna be ruminating about my interaction w bill bruford in the hotel for the rest of my life. he was clearly like not expecting a fan to approach him then and there but he was also trying to be cordial and normal despite me probably looking like i had just witnessed a tragic event or something. we exchanged a few words n then he was like "ya so we're heading up to manhattan now" just like making small talk and i was so intimidated and starstruck i dont even remember what i said LOL i think it was pretty normal but i wanted to ask him something (if the weird modulated voice on back to the beginning is him tho im pretty sure it is but id like confirmation) and get a pic but. i was unable to do so on account of the being absolutely petrified. anyway props to bill for trying to be normal to me when i was probably visibly trembling

#hes very physically imposing. and im not just saying that because i think hes insanely hot #hes tall and has a deep voice and unless hes smiling his face is kind of severe #like chris was taller than bill and obviously more. portly. but i had my dad to back me up then #shelby was waiting on a couch but i had no one to be like 'this is my kid and they like u' you know lol #and when i met russell mael i was also VERY scared but hes like. tiny #idk. it seemed different and harder to interact with bill for some reason.#probably because neither of us were prepared?#idk. still feel like i failed somehow. ugh #i sound so ungrateful lol IM SORRY i just idk im supposed to be better at this i feel #i hang out with the current yes lineup after shows but i guess theyre like nobodies relative to bill #and its mostly just jay and jon d i talk to. and no offense to either of them. but theyre not bill bruford #idk maybe i should give myself some grace #its bill fucking bruford of course id be scared shitless #IS ANYONE STILL READING THIS #a beast that can talk

#man ive never seen an eating disorder kill someone else besides a parent infecting a child but my nana is really trying #shes like 1000% orthotexic. will not eat anything not filled with vegetables or fat. and my grandpa is 87yo with a heart condition currentl #in the hospital for covid bc thry went to Christmas church and dont believe in being vaccinated and my dad is so frustrated #bc he knows his mom is not gonna give his dad hearty foods. he needs to eat like protein shakes and meat and ice cream. anything thats not #her cooking which sucks on top of being extremely healthy. except its not healthy bc they dont eat a balanced diet #so its my nanas eating disorder killing her husband and shes so fucking frustrating. im like 99% sure she has obsessive compulsive #personally disorder bc she fits to a T and has zero insight. she may have full on 0cd bc talking to my dad he has more obvious 0cd #compulsions than i do. he used to say phrases before going to bed and would take 2 steps across the floor to prevent bad things from #happening. so like im pretty sure my nana is where i get my perfectionism and 0cd. god. i wish i could express how fucked up she is #like my dad said at least he had a stable home to grow up in but like she has zero sympathy for other people. cannot look past herself. wil #not wear a mask bc she doesnt care enough abt other ppl. my dad was like: u would not have survived in that house. which is fair bc i am #barely keeping it together coming from a stable home with two sympathetic parents who i know love me #and like its sad that they're suffering the effects of buying into the fox news bullshit and its killing them #but also. genuinely. i think theyre not very good ppl. theyre the type of people who think they're better bc they're religious. white. and #thin. and theyre not better thsn anyone. their grandchildren cant stand them. well cant stand her at least. papa is just quite so its hard #to say what hes thinking. apparently he was confused last night and saying something about eating dinner on the golf course. which sounds #nicer thsn being in the hospital lol. ugh. he seems not long for this world tbh. may he pass peacefully to b with his 1st wife who died of #brain cancer at age like 20 or something. so it goes. bleh. how many funerals are intended for me in the next 5 years? hopefully none but #that seems improbable with the unspoken drain circling that seems to b going on in this family. old age and like almost 10 years of cancer #defying the stats but for how much longer?#i dunno. its just so weird to watch these things happen and not talk about it directly to the other ppl who see it #i worry that ill come off as too callose or inappropriate bc i have that tendency when something bad is happening but thats everyone else #excuse? idk i just feel like its better to talk abt things #unrelated #ed mention #i tell u this so i can say these things to someone and also bc if i were u. i would like to hear the drama #bc im nosey and i assume other r too ;-]

No thoughts… only edizzy la cage aux folles au

#their relationship in the movie version is just like edizzy fr to me #the codependency… the volitility at times but beneath that just them knowing eachother better than anyone else and still being in love #and it fits so well in my head too because most aus are about them owning a club anyway lmao #plot twist stede is the straight dad and like in the movie version he lowkey crushes on ed (who would be albert / albin) except its #(well… more like ‘straight’ dad)#actually for real and ed revealing he’s not a woman is his gay awakening lmfao #only thing I’m stuck on is the way that the plot requires the other parents to be homophobic but obviously stede & mary wouldn’t be #me talking #our flag means death #edizzy #izzy hands #ed teach #izzy ofmd #blackhands #it would be interesting to have izzy in the role of albin/albert too but I think he fits george/armand way more #also the jewish last name thing from the movie would be cool to incorporate since that’s a semi common hc already #ALSO !! IT HAS THE SAME THEMES / JOURNEY WITH THE MAIN CHARACTERS IMO #like ik obviously shamelessly being yourself is just a thing in almost every piece of queer media but yeah. it fits their issues well too #it would be interesting to explore izzy pushing ed to fit a certain role in this context and both of their issues with not being vulnerable-#/themselves fully and not feeling worthy of love #lmao rip to their kid tho. hope he can gain some good coping skills from stede and mary’s kid… ah wait they aren’t great at coping either #also izzy owning a gay/drag club is so val of him so I love it for that

just saw a post that had a really good point abt how people characterize sam in relation to dean and i had a point to add to it but i had to pause cause,,, is this a regular salmondean post or a wincest

#it was wincest #this is a regular occurrence #anyway the idea of sam not really fully knowing dean only applies in the same way of a kid not fully knowing their parents as people until-#they themselves are adults #like early seasons sam did not fully know dean as an individual #outside of the mask he wore to keep peace be the person his dad wanted him to be #or at the very least the person dean thought his dad wanted him to be #which is where a lot of the conflict came from in those early seasons #so yeah sam knows dean in a symbiotic way that anyone does when they’ve spent they’re entire lives together #but sam didn’t really know dean as a person until the later seasons #sam literally had the same arc that dean did when marry was revived it just spanned over several seasons #vs someone like cas or garth who met and knew dean as an adult who could actually get to know him on an equal footing #they’re going to know dean better in a different way than sam because the same pretences aren’t there #spn #supernatural #dean winchester #sam winchester

So many people do things out of obligation they can't believe the lengths people go out of love.

#and they think people can't tell when they're simply an obligation #people think i have ulterior motives or some obligation to my siblings with how I'm overprotective and care for them so much #when it's just love #and they think I'm blind to their ulterior motives when i know I'm being used so they can look like a better person #i know the difference because i know what it is to be loved #my mom is far from perfect but she knows that and doesn't strive for perfection #she strives to better herself #if not for herself then at least for her kids #she doesn't say the perfect things all the time but you can tell she's trying #which is a lot better than someone who says they care but never shows it #my mom always asked a week ahead what i wanted for breakfast lunch and dinner for my birthday #and would emphasize to think about myself and not others and what they'd like #and if i wanted a cake or something different #i can't recall if i chose my dinner this year #my sister bought me donuts after asking what dessert I wanted #and my dad got me a chocolate cake after i told him a week before how I hated chocolate and cake #and got told by his gf that I was rude for not cutting the cake when the only ones there to celebrate with were my younger siblings #my older sister was at work and no one else ate with us #all day i kept thinking i just wish I was with my mom and all my younger siblings #it didn't feel like a celebration it felt like a performance that he didn't even care about #bc he realized he didn't have to put on a performance for anyone #love is not a performance and about looking good in front of others #something he knows nothing about

Both intimidated and intrigued by how Price is worse than Ghost and Makarov

i’m gonna be dead fucking honest i think price killed his dad

#of course we all have our own internal canons and i am clearly biased against him considering how i write him #but i’m gonna be real. i do like price as a character #i just think he is also a horrible person #these things can coexist #anyway since i never really write about his backstory (the version i’ve conceived) as none of my stories are REALLY about him i suppose i #can get into it a little bit here. in the tags because i’m fucking infuriating like that #do i think price killed his dad on purpose? no. do i think he wanted to? yea. did his dad have it coming? in a sense.#i don’t personally believe anyone deserves to be killed but you can see why price did it #also the relationship this guy has with macmillan is not fucking normal #he is exactly the kind of person that would go “i can do better than my dad did” and then makes things infinitely fucking worse #he has the ego and will of a man that has probably built it up as a defense mechanism and cannot handle it being questioned #he seems well-adjusted and unfaseable but a good deal of that is posturing #we know so little about him but a man like that does not see other people as like. on the same level as him in several respects #he is very compelling though do not get me wrong i think he’s fucking fascinating #but yeah he killed his dad for sure.#crow answers #hope i didn’t offend any price enjoyers TOO bad 👍

i didnt want to put this in my prev reblogs tags but like

my dad was a us army soldier that went to Iraq, and for a long time i thought he did good over there, or at least tried. like my mom said that he had locals thank him personally for his help. though now i wonder if he’s just, lying about all that. bc not only did he literally Come Back Wrong after his third deployment, over the years he slowly opens up about shit he deliberately never told me, like the time he and a few other soldiers were left for dead by his group, and he only survived because the locals helped him, if im remembering right. however, i wonder how true that all is, or rather does that make up for the other heinous shit he’s responsible for. i remember him telling me passively he tortured a man. so i Know he has skeletons in his closet, i know for a fact there’s shit he will take to his grave.

all those times i prayed for my dad to survive and come back home, was that at the expense of innocent Iraqis? could my dad dying out there saved someone? I’ll never know for sure, but it kinda points to that doesn’t it?

#its hard. growing up believing your dad a hero only to be disillusioned and see he was a murderous pawn for the state.#that he didn’t help anyone there. his presence alone made everything worse.#i know he didn’t enjoy it but that doesn’t matter #sometimes i think. maybe it would’ve been best for him to die out there. but what would that have done to me?#would i be so angry and devastated that i Never would have been disillusioned? i wouldve been a military bootlicker my whole life?#my dad lives so i can be better than him?#and ofc he comes home with ptsd out the ass and just blew up our family #as in he doesn’t love my mom anymore and wants to move away and split us all up #took me and my brothers to alaska and left my mom to struggle all on her own #only for him to be dogshit at the parenting thing when hes by himself. kept bringing in other women in his life #my moms okay now. shes remarried and owns a home and both of my brothers live with her now. but the journey to get there? it was fucked #i just. i fucking hate the military. i hate what it did to my family i hate what it does to families overseas #idk why im even going on about this #here of all places #txt

Honestly, as someone who owns a lot of the Archie comics (one day I'll go through them and sort them proper), anytime Pender wrote for any character was yikes. The ladies especially.

#I'm Just Warming Up {OOC}#Mun Menu {Post}#He also has this odd fixation on Knuckles/the Echidnas; I joke about the character needing a restraining order from him #Dude literally thought SEGA stole his ideas for the Master Emerald and later about the Chronicle series...#And even later in the movies when we saw Knuckles Dad; he stated they stole his ideas again...because apparently Knuckles can't have a dad?#Like fan's joked it was Locke BUT that was a joke; it wasn't #So yeah; most characters when out of Pender's clutches were better written at times...and it shows #I actually liked Julie-Su when anyone BUT Pender wrote for her #...also not even mention the weird shit with Charmy he did...like WOW #Thank heavens that some of his ideas were vetoed HARD by the team...like what he wanted to do with Sally and Geoffrey #If you know than you know...and it was YIKES

ok fr last one but there's actually a bootleg of my school's anastasia and i'm linking it bc you all NEED to understand that my infatuation with this one girl's voice which started when i was in the 6th grade and still hasn't really worn off isn't based on nothing

#brielle's the one in the n95 mask (the video is too grainy to actually make out any of the ensemble's faces but she stands out)#and i'm the in my 'teenage tboy's diy first short haircut' era in every scene she's in #apart from everything abt the girl who plays anya. the tea on everyone else is that our director liked the boy who played gleb's voice so #much that she actually lowered some if not all of his parts to be in his range. the guy who played vlad was a total diva and uhm. the phras #'peaked in high school' has been tossed around at him a lot. and the fact that he came back to sub the year after he graduated isn't helpin #his case. also he pressured the girl who played anya's grandmother into wearing old age makeup + spray her hair grey bc he decided he was #going to wear it and since she's supposed to be older than him she had to too and used to waltz into the girls' changing room whenever he #wanted. everyone was like super shocked during auditions though bc we all thought he was a shoe-in for dimitry esp since seniors get #priority casting bc it's their last chance. but at callbacks (we had singing auditions via video and dance auditions in person and callback #were tacked on to the dance auditions) he kinda flubbed his song and then this freshman. who was with us via google meet bc he literally ha #covid at the time absolutely blew him out of the water and i remember walking away w brielle like 'holy shit [first name] [last name] just #lost a part to a freshman' (he's the kind of person you just have to full name otherwise it sounds wrong). that said i do think he made a #much better vlad then he would've made a dimitry and while he is. a lot. he's always been nice to me and i did briefly idolize him and his #stage presence way i did anya's singing voice but that faded when i got into hs and started actually observing his prima donna ways #(the one production we were in together before in middle school we didn't have any scenes together). the girl who played the grandma #actually shouted me out in cast circle and that's the only time that's ever happened to me. also i'm p sure her dad is/was dating someone m #dad and by extension myself work with so that's. Oh My God. like she (the one who works for my dad) brought him w her to a comedy show as i #think her bf but i'm not 100% sure and when he found out what school i went to he mentioned his daughter went there and despite the fact #that i basically have a script for when people ask me that question bc i do NOT pay attention to most of my fellow students and don't know #anyone i was like 'holy shit' bc i actually did. hm what else. the guy who played the tsar and i used to shittalk bad period dramas #backstage during the first part of act 2. also during the press conference scene i need you to picture all the bolshevik soldiers and #romanov royals doing the macarena behind the curtain bc that was absolutely what we were doing back there. speaking of the press conference #the really high singing w/o a clear source was actually anya standing behind the curtain on the other side of the stage bc she's the only #one who physically could sing the part. also in regards to the bolshevik soldiers. we were originally supposed to have wooden rifles but fo #some reason our director took them out so we had to just walk menacingly towards the romanovs. you can't rlly see me that well in that scen #but that jacket would NOT stay closed and for 2/3 performances i had to awkwardly hold it closed the entire time. luckily the one that was #filmed was the one where i was smart enough to bring safety pins and also saved like all of the ballerinas bc their costumes all started #falling apart at once backstage.#romeo.txt #theatreposting
